Adapting to Different Styles

Part 2 of DiSCover Communication

How many times has someone gotten upset with you because they misunderstood your intensions? How many times have people misread your tone, your mood, or your approach? Was there a small change that you could have made that would have prevented all the confusion? Too often, that insight comes too little too late. This course is designed to help participants grasp that insight before misunderstanding occurs, not after. The DISC model will help you understand some of the most important aspects of human perception and interaction. You will learn to see the characteristics of each DISC style and understand their unique preferences. But most importantly, you will recognize how your behaviour is likely to be misread and learn how to adjust your communication to meet the needs and styles of others around you.
Pre-requisite- you must have completed the DISC Working Styles inventory prior to taking this course.
